14 “Gbɔmɔ ni yoo fɔ lɛ yɔɔ nɛɛ,Be kukuoo kɛkɛ ehiɔ shi,+ ni emli eyi tɔ kɛ haomɔi* sɔŋŋ.+
2 Ekwɛ̃ɔ tamɔ fɔfɔi, kɛkɛ lɛ eŋala;*+
Ejoɔ foi tamɔ hɔɔŋ ni elaajeɔ.+
3 Hɛɛ, ojieee ohiŋmɛi yɛ enɔ,Ni bo diɛŋtsɛ okɛ lɛ* yeɔ sane.+
4 Namɔ baanyɛ aná mɔ ko ni he tse kɛjɛ mɔ ko ni he tseee mli?+
Mɔ ko mɔ ko nyɛŋ!
5 Kɛji atsɔɔ egbii lɛ,No lɛ, enyɔji lɛ ayibɔ lɛ yɛ odɛŋ;Ofo husu ohã lɛ ní ekateke.+
6 Jiemɔ ohiɛ yɛ enɔ bɔ ni afee ni ejɔɔ ehe,Kɛyashi ebaagbe egbi lɛ naa tamɔ apaafonyo feɔ lɛ.+
7 Ejaakɛ tso po, hiɛnɔkamɔ yɛ kɛhã lɛ.
Kɛji afo afɔ̃ shi lɛ, ebaatsɛ̃ ekoŋŋ,Ni eniji ni baatsɛ̃rɛ̃ lɛ baaya nɔ adara.

9 Kɛji enu nu ŋmajee he nɔŋŋ lɛ ebaatsɛ̃;Ni ebaagbála niji tamɔ tso hee.
10 Shi gbɔmɔ gboɔ, ni ekãa shi ni enyɛɛɛ nɔ ko kwraa efee;Kɛ́ gbɔmɔ gbo lɛ, nɛgbɛ eyɔɔ?+
11 Nui laajeɔ yɛ ŋshɔ mli,Ni faa miɔ ni egbiɔ.
12 Gbɔmɔ hu kãa shi ni eteee shi.+
Kɛyashi be ni ŋwɛi bɛ dɔŋŋ lɛ, amɛhiɛ etsɛ̃ŋ,Ni atsĩɛŋ amɛ hu kɛjɛŋ amɛwɔ lɛ mli.+
13 Ao, miná kulɛ oŋɔ mi ohɔ shi yɛ Gbonyobu* lɛ mli,+Ní oŋɔ mi otee, kɛyashi omlifu lɛ baaho,Ní oto be ohã mi, ní okai mi!+
14 Kɛji gbɔmɔ gbo lɛ, ani ebaahi wala mli ekoŋŋ?+
Misɔɔmɔ ni akɛfi minɔ lɛ gbii lɛ amli fɛɛ lɛ, mamɛKɛyashi be ni abaaŋmɛɛ mihe.+

Obaashwe* oninenaa nitsumɔ lɛ waa.
16 Shi amrɔ nɛɛ, oyaa nɔ okaneɔ minajifaamɔi fɛɛ;Mihe esha lɛ pɛ okwɛɔ.
17 Asɔo mimlatɔmɔ lɛ naa awo kotoku* mli,Ni okɛ ama sɔoɔ mitɔmɔ lɛ naa.
18 Bɔ ni gɔŋ gbeɔ shi ni efufuluɔNí ahãa tɛsaa hu jeɔ egbɛhe,

20 Oyaa nɔ oyeɔ enɔ kunim kɛyashiɔ ehiɛ kpãtãa;+Otsakeɔ bɔ ni eyɔɔ lɛ, ni ohãa eyaa.
21 Awoɔ ebii lɛ ahiɛ nyam, shi eleee;Amɛtsɔmɔɔ mɛi ni abuuu amɛ ahãaa nɔ ko hu, shi eyɔseee.+
22 Be ni eyɔɔ eheloo mli lolo lɛ pɛ enuɔ piŋmɔ he;Be ni ehiɛ kã lolo lɛ pɛ eyeɔ* awerɛho.”
